@spudsmctoole said in How to make a quick and simple theme?:

If it's the link in home/pi that leads to /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation, there's no themes folder in there.

Yes, that's th folder. By default there is no themes folder, but you can create it and then copy the theme's folder in there.

Got there eventually. For anyone else having problems:

Go to Settings>Input and set User 2 Binds to Sinclair Keyboard, and User 1 Binds to Cursor Joystick. Then go to Quick Menu and click. Save Core Overrides. That'll set you up for basic registering of inputs without having to repeat it every time you load a game.

For individual games that aren't pre-configured with those settings, go to Quick Menu>Options and set the individual controls, then save the config file for that game from the top of the same menu.

@ciofalello That's not all the information asked in the page.
What is your Video RAM limit in Emulationstation ?

Found a solution:

720 Degrees (revision 4) on lr-mame2003 (I think I unzipped 720 and 720 rev 4, merged the contents then rezipped as 720.zip).

Paperboy (revision 3) also on lr-mame2003.

Both work very nicely now, with no nasty tearing/glitching effects.

So my problem was fixed... I had to set a hotkey up to open retro arch and configure the controller while a n64 rom is running... that fixed my issue .

@prog-amateur I would also like to know the steps taken to add BGM to RetroPie. This would be a great feature to be added

Just some follow up info. When I put Aspect Ratio to 4:3 the screen is vertically stretched with massive black borders on either side which take up most of the screen.

@jjack229 @herb_fargus Thanks for the replies!

@adams Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@heroism Again, you need to unzip the samples in their own game folder for this to work.

the problem was that your foundation was wrong i think.

my theory: during https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/#configure-controllers you bound L bottom/R bottom to your L and R buttons. you should have bound L top and R top. this would probably mean that MK would have had sensible default controls (along with SF2, etc), and it would have also meant that you had no SNES button bound to the MAME menu (not that you should need access to it anyway).

Circling back around to this post after a bit just to update anyone who may be having the same issue that I was and put some finality to the issue. The issue was with the Xbox One Bluetooth controller having some driver compatibility issues. I believe the solution is still a WIP, but atar-axis wrote a driver called xpadneo that works amazingly well with Xbox One in Bluetooth mode. It solved all of my controller issues. Jstest now shows the dev input perfectly, and includes rumble support. Really great stuff!

Hello,

Can anyone please help or give some guidance on the problem above?

Thanks in advance!

I can confirm that using latest RetroPie in latest Raspbian Stretch with stable EmulationStation it does recognise files >2GB as @mitu stated:

Created a test "rom":

$ dd if=/dev/zero of=$HOME/RetroPie/roms/psx/test.pbp bs=1M count=3072

Then restarted ES, the rom appears and ES tries to launch it normally. Of course the emulator returns immediately, but it IS recognised by ES:

lvl2: EmulationStation - v2.7.6rp, built Jul 11 2018 - 17:57:30 ... lvl2: Attempting to launch game... lvl2: /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ psx /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx/test.pbp
